We decided to use our mifi with a Digi - mobile 20€ for 2 gb. You can also buy 3g for 20€ but you cannot use Skype with this - special offer at the moment. There is a really nice English guy in the indoor market called ' 'Andys' who will set you up if you have problems. He gets very busy. No problems so far. Very good wifi / mifi signal everywhere we have been.

We have also so far collected around 6 local fee wiffies which we use when visiting.

Others are using the sites two 'unlimited' internet who will be along soon...

Hope this helps

Hiya Steve, no straight 10€ for one gb including the sim. They retain 1€ to keep the account active for when you want to top-up. Good signal in Benidorm, not sure about rest of Spain yet.

Re Internet on Villasol , Brian is using site Internet. I am using AhoraNet South and the server dropped out for 24hours, but it's been fine since. Brian says he might use AhoraNet when his site subs run out.

We are on the pitch in front of the cleaners villa, right next to the WiFi Ariel, (Villasol 4). Signal strength is great but downloads speeds are crap. I can manage to read news, do my emails etc but no chance with Skype. Some times I can't even log on. Guy behind me has had WIFI company man out but was a waste of time. I will stick with it for now as I've paid for a month up front.

There supposed to be changing supplier next week, here at Zahora..

I`m having to use it because there is a tree in front of where my dish points to the internet satellite..

And I have been on each day at all times of the day & night and it has been great..

We are on Hecam03,,, by the first toilet/shower block... maybe we hit lucky on our plot.. (177).. :thumb:
